ELISA: Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay

admin Developing practical skills

Hello, Today you will learn about ELISA – Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a test that uses antibodies and color change to identify a substance.  Here and here you can find interactive ELISA tutorials. Here is another good interactive presentation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELISA https://www.sdstate.edu/sdces/fcs/upload/ELISA_Part1_PPT.pdf
